The Splash Foundation
started its first swimming lessons in 2015, with a group of 30 migrant domestic
workers being taught how to swim by a dedicated group of swimmers at a pool not
used on Sunday afternoons.
Since then, it has taught this like skill to more
than 7,500 people, mainly migrant workers and children.
